"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I had a date the other day. We went to the bowling alley after leaving a local diner. I had been feeling a little sick the whole day with mild stomach cramps but thought nothing of it and figured it would pass. Things were going really well and after about an hour, we decided to call it a night. I started feeling really nauseated on the way home and eventually I just vomited all over the place in my truck with my date next to me. While I was vomiting, I sh't all over myself. I has shorts on and it was running down my leg. The stench of vomit and sh't was horrible. My date starts screaming as if I'd grown a second head or something.
I had a bad stomach virus and was laid up for a day following this. She did call to see if I was feeling better but the same playful tone in her voice wasn't there. I know this wasn't my finest hour but surely people can get past this. How would you all approach this?
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Dude, is it so hard to open the door and turn your head to face outside the car when vomiting? I assume you vomited while the car was standing still, not while you were going 60 on a freeway. When I vomit, I never get the crap on me. And I guarantee you if you did that she wouldn't have been as freaked out.

Not to evade the question dude but this is really all dependent on how mature the chick is. If she's bratty superficial twit she'll wig out about it, if she has class/maturity she'll realize everybody gets sick and nobody can control when and where it is gonna happen. She look past it and it won't be a big deal at all. Would you really want to be with a girl that is such a space cadet she can't look past you getting ill anyway?

It's totally understandable, when your sick like that it just happens, you have no control over it (of course you could of turned your head the other way to vomit but, whatever). Don't worry about it, if she can't accept that you were really ill then she's not worth it.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
